1.2876 "An eye of pity": A Discussion of Justice and Mercy in Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice".
This paper will explore the depiction of justice and mercy in the play. In the process, it will be argued that Shakespeare uses them to interrogate the underlying value system upon which they depend. As will be seen, it is very easy - both in Shakespeare's time as today - to apply justice and mercy to those of whom we approve and favour. However, the true test of the "quality" of our mercy may actually lie - Shakespeare suggests - in its application to those who lack power or popularity in our culture. 5.5 pgs. 10 f/c. 1b.

English playwright and poet are recognized as the greatest of all dramatists. Shakespeare's plays communicate an intellectual knowledge of the wellsprings of human behavior, brought to light through portrayal of a wide variety of characters. His use of poetic and dramatic approach to create a unified pleasing effect out of a multiplicity of vocal expressions and actions is recognized as an achievement. His use of poetry within his plays to express the deepest levels of human motivation in individual, social, and universal situations is taken into account as one of the greatest achievements in literary history.
